The Michigan football team dropped its season opener to Notre
Dame, falling to the No. 12 Fighting Irish, 24-17. Since then, the
Wolverines have rolled through their next nine games undefeated.
Now ranked fourth, Michigan will host the Hoosiers in its final home
game of the 2018 season. After that, the Wolverines will travel two
hours south to Columbus, where they’ll face Ohio State in their final
game before the postseason.

Chris Partridge has grown comfortable in
his role on Michigan’s coaching staff.
Notre Dame (Sept. 1): Touchdown Jesus?
Where is Touchdown Moses?
Western Michigan (Sept. 8): Row the NOPE!
(please don’t sue us PJ)
Wisconsin (Oct. 13): There’s no “I” in Chryst.
Michigan State (Oct. 20): The Michigan Daily
has beaten the State News 14 years in a row.
Penn State (Nov. 3): James Franklin? More like
a really bad football coach.
SMU (Sept. 15): More like Methodisn’t
Rutgers (Nov. 10): Isiah Pacheco for Heisman.
Nebraska (Sept. 22): Nebraska is undeniably
the worst state to drive through.
Northwestern (Sept. 29): No. No one cares
that you went to Medill. Crawl back in your hole.
Maryland (Oct. 6): Leave it to a coach with the
last name CANADA to lead a team that is *kind
of* good but mostly irrelevant.
Ohio State (Nov. 24): Brett XcXurphy
Indiana (Nov. 17): We spent 5 minutes debat-
ing who their coach was.
